After little investment in ( infrastructure, flow, job, hour, air, driving, road-users, transport, commuting ) for 25 years, California’s ( air, transport, commuting, job, hour, driving, infrastructure, road-users, flow ) system is groaning. Businesses complain about potential employees turning down ( job, infrastructure, hour, commuting, road-users, flow, air, driving, transport ) offers that would compel them to spend hours a day ( flow, job, hour, commuting, transport, infrastructure, air, driving, road-users ). Car makers worry that unless ( commuting, job, hour, flow, transport, air, infrastructure, driving, road-users ) quality improves they will be ordered to meet yet stricter design standards.
Road-pricing has long been championed by economists, keen to impose more of the external costs of driving on ( air, job, hour, flow, transport, infrastructure, driving, road-users, commuting ) by charging them a fee that reflects not just the distance travelled but also the time and route of the journey. ( transport, job, hour, flow, driving, commuting, road-users, air, infrastructure ) imposes a heavier burden when it is done at rush ( air, job, flow, commuting, transport, hour, driving, road-users, infrastructure ) so such journeys ought to cost a driver more. In theory, drivers will then adjust their departure times and smooth out the ( hour, infrastructure, flow, job, commuting, driving, air, road-users, transport ) of traffic through the day.

America has convinced me that too much space for urban ( development, favour, ill-planned, greenfield, divisive, problem, transit, built ) is a bad thing. When humans are pressed they come up with creative solutions – Manhattan is an outstanding example of a great city ( built, development, divisive, favour, greenfield, ill-planned, problem, transit ) within a 12 x 3 mile plot. Where ( built, development, divisive, favour, greenfield, ill-planned, problem, transit ) expansion is endlessly possible, the results are ugly, ( built, development, divisive, favour, greenfield, ill-planned, problem, transit ) and socially ( built, development, divisive, favour, greenfield, ill-planned, problem, tramsit ). Above all, such developments ( built, development, divisive, favour, greenfield, ill-planned, problem, transit ) the car, and even Americans are coming to see that the car is a ( built, development, divisive, favour, greenfield, ill-planned, problem, transit ) and not a solution. Minneapolis has just started work on its first mass ( built, development, divisive, favour, greenfield, ill-planned, problem, transit ) system.

As everyone knows, the Netherlands is one of the most densely ( architecturally, demand, economy, housing, populated, pressure, prove, reinvent ) countries in the world. At the same time, it has a healthy ( architecturally, demand, economy, housing, populated, pressure, prove, reinvent ) and there is a ( architecturally, demand, economy, housing, populated, pressure, prove, reinvent ) for moderately priced ( architecturally, demand, economy, housing, populated, pressure, prove, reinvent ). The ( architecturally, demand, economy, housing, populated, pressure, prove, reinvent ) on land is very great, as is the need to ( architecturally, demand, economy, housing, populated, pressure, prove, reinvent ) ways of using it. The situation has allowed young architects to ( architecturally, demand, economy, housing, populated, pressure, prove, reinvent ) themselves. The result is that the Netherlands is at present one of the most ( architecturally, demand, economy, housing, populated, pressure, prove, reinvent ) vital of countries.
